Primera Federación Group 2: Three Sunday fixtures shape league standings

OPA WIRE, Nov 1 (OPA) — Real Murcia travels to the Nuevo Estadio El Maulí to face Antequera, aiming to break a winless streak on the road. The visitors will be without Juanto Ortuño and Óscar Gil due to injuries, while Antequera looks to maintain its unbeaten home record against a side considered a top contender for promotion.

In the second match of the day, Juventud Torremolinos hosts Águilas at the Estadio Municipal El Pozuelo. The home side enters the fixture on an unbeaten run under manager Junes Barny with a full squad available. Conversely, Águilas seeks to rebound from recent form despite missing Carrillo, Adri Pérez, and Antonio Sánchez, though Chris Martínez returns to the lineup.

Hércules faces Rayo Majadahonda at the Estadio José Rico Pérez under significant pressure following a heavy defeat to Nàstic. Manager Beto Company is expected to rotate the squad, with Yago Cantero, Toril, and Coromina sidelined. Hércules aims to climb the table while Rayo Majadahonda arrives with momentum after a league win against Sant Andreu and a successful Copa del Rey outing in Lucena.

These fixtures carry significant weight for teams looking to distance themselves from the relegation zone or secure a spot in the upper echelon of the table. With only two points separating Rayo Majadahonda from the drop zone, the match in Alicante serves as a critical opportunity for the visitors to stabilize their season while the hosts attempt to restore confidence among their supporters.
